Rosette Christopher:
The protagonist of Chrono Crusade. Rosette is an elite exorcist of the Order of Magdalene and goes out on missions to destroy deadly spirits and devils. She works with a devil named Chrono (or "Chrno" wink with whom she made a contract when she was young, and wears a clock around her neck that contains her lifeforce. When she opens it, Chrono is able to increase his demonic power at the cost of shortening Rosette's lifespan. This is the result of the contract between her and Chrono. Rosette is aware that her life will be a short one and therefore tries to accomplish as much as she can in the time that she has. She herself believes that she will not live to see thirty. Her primary motivation is to save her brother Joshua, who has been captured by Aion. In the anime, it is later revealed that Rosette is in fact the reincarnation of Mary Magdalene, with whom Chrono had made his previous and first contract (if only lasting a moment before). When Rosette is awakened as the 8th virtue, the Saint, she comes under the influence of Aion who manipulates her basic desire to help the helpless. However Chrono brings her back from under Aion's control.
Chrono:
The titular character. Chrono is a devil who was once on the same side as Aion, preferring himself as his "sword", but after meeting Mary Magdalene and falling in love with her, he had slowly begun to become a sympathetic person and left the "evil" side. He is a skilled and powerful being, allowing him to become infamous for killing many of his fellow demons. In the manga, Chrono killed 100 demons during the Sinner's flight from Pandaemoniuim out of rage, when his fellow "sinners" killed by Pandaemonium's guard. In the anime, Chrono slew 100 million devils during the Revelation War. However, Aion took Chrono’s horns, leaving him powerless (the horns are the devils’ power source) and with only one alternative: to seek a Contractor, a person who is willing to sacrifice his or her lifespan in order to let the selected devil, in this case Chrono, reveal his true form and have full use of his powers. Chrono’s current Contractor is Rosette Christopher, a very close and precious friend whom he vowed to protect. Unlike most devils, Chrono is sympathetic, friendly, and not unwilling to risks his life for his friends numerous times.
